I think the guy at least needs a pat on the back.

Wait a minute. Something is wrong with this picture. There's a company potentially moving to Durham that will create "19" jobs to which the company wants "incentives" to relocate or build. This guy put's 50 people to work and received what in assistance? NOTHING!!

The owner took no-zero government assistance. This is one of those folks who Obama said "You did not build that business". Obama is not good for America. He wants everyone to settle for the "new normal" rather than working for the American Dream.

Why is it that people just naturally assume that the government should help them. It is his business and I just dont see my tax money going to rebuild it for him. By the way I have never had any help from the government. If you choose not to have insurance its your problem.

@crash247 it is very unlikely he didn't carry insurance. If the property was still mortgaged he would be required to carry it. If it was paid off then he could afford to carry it. No smart business is not going to protect his investment.

@boneymaroney I have no idea where Bush's stimulus package money went or Obama's. Good question

I have the great good fortune of having known Mr. Henries and his father Etless. They, and the hardy souls like them are a solid anchor on an ever shifting shore. They rebuilt their business because their DNA would not allow them to do anything differently. But remember, they didn't do that alone. Nosiree.

He never said he didn't use his insurance maybe he didn't need help from the government
